ABSTRACT
The three-corner concept entails three different treating approaches to correct facial asymmetry in facial paralysis. Restoring balance is achieved with static lifting as well soft tissue displacement procedures. The volume is restored either with autologous tissue transfer or biocompatible materials. Animation is reanimated with unique free and local functional muscle transfers. All three are performed simultaneously to provide a holistic treatment modality in facial paralysis. The authors of this chapter describe new surgical innovations in treating facial paralysis sequala.

Keywords: Three-corner approach; facial paralysis; facial reanimation; muscle transfer; microsurgery; free flap; thread lift; face lift; lip lift
